I believe everyone knows that chopsticks are a kind of tableware invented in China, and we have been using them all the time since it was invented. It can be said that chopsticks are not only a kind of tableware, but also a cultural embodiment with a long history in China. The composition of chopsticks is actually very simple, that is, two sticks with the same thickness and shape, which are held in pliers shape by hand and then clamped with vegetables, which is convenient and easy to use. However, not all dishes are suitable for chopsticks, just like the following four kinds of delicious food, which many people in China can't hold, and it is even more difficult for foreigners.
first: preserved egg with cold sauce
preserved egg is a kind of salted duck egg, which is black or yellow after being salted, and there are usually some patterns on the surface, so people will also call it preserved egg. Preserved eggs have a strong smell, but they are very good in taste, taste and nutrition. They are usually eaten cold and served with wine after meals. However, preserved eggs are soft and smooth. After being cut into small pieces, there is no point of focus, so it is difficult to clamp them with chopsticks. Even if chopsticks are used in a freewheeling realm, they will often be clipped off.
Second: peanuts
Peanuts are a very delicious appetizer. Peel peanuts and fry them in an oil pan. After frying, they are crispy and fragrant. They are very good with food and wine, and even can be used as snacks. However, because it has been fried and is relatively small, it is very difficult to clamp it with chopsticks, and it often falls off before it is delivered to the mouth.
third: vermicelli
vermicelli is a kind of delicious food like noodles made of starch, which is particularly smooth, rich and chewy. However, it is precisely because it is smooth and chewy that it is difficult to pick it up with chopsticks, and it is easy to slip away when it is caught in the middle, even if chopsticks exert force. After all, starch is so slippery.
Fourth: Mapo Tofu
Mapo Tofu is a classic food in Sichuan, which is made of smooth and tender tofu. It tastes spicy and delicious, with endless aftertaste. Because it is made of tofu, it can't bear too much force at all, so you can only lift tofu with chopsticks, and you can't clamp it hard at all, otherwise it will break when you clamp it.
